Well, after deliberating for a good few months about whether I should get a bigger car now or in 6-9 months..I finally decided to just keep a hold of it and get shot of hers instead. The car has 135,000 on the clock and to be honest, I can't see it dropping in value by much now, from what it's currently worth. I do love my car - even though it's had it's fair share of problems. It's due a minor service and I'll get the DSG done in another 5-8k miles.
Next step is to up rate the divert valve and, possibly, a better exhaust (milltek?)
The handset should be at home tonight and, hopefully, I can get it uploaded tonight and take it for a spin.
